#15977: Restructure typechecking modules -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: goldfire | Owner: (none) Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.6.3 Component: Compiler | Version: 8.6.2 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Some of the kind-checking and type-checking modules have become unruly. Simon and I propose the new structure: - KcTyClsDecls will handle kind-checking and generalization of datatype declarations. (That is, `kcTyClGroup` and children, including related functions in TcHsType) - TcInstBinds will handle `tcInstDecls2` and children - TcTyConValidity will handle `checkValidTyCon` and children - Fold the rest of TcInstDecls (essentially, `tcInstDecls1`) into what's left of TcTyClsDecls. TcInstDecls is removed. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15977 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
